THE WORLD'S LEADING GRATED TRENCH DRAIN SYSTEM
05 Jun 2012
ACO Infrastructure is the market leading brand for trench drainage in transportation infrastructure applications.
ACO Infrastructure is the market leading brand for trench drainage in transportation infrastructure applications, namely highways and motorways, urban roads, airport pavements, container ports, industrial parks, bus and truck stops, distribution centres and streetscapes.
The systems consist of factory manufactured channel units made from corrosion resistant durable materials to withstand the most challenging environments.
ACO Infrastructure comprises a number of systems and comes complete with either non-removable or removable lockable grates.
TraffikDrain
A heavy duty modular trench drain made from polymer concrete. Each channel unit has a cast-in ductile iron wearing edge rail which provides support for trafficable wheel loads up to 13 tonnes. There is a choice of 2 grate types, the bolted HiFlo grate, which ensures high water intake and the Heelsafe grate, allowing for safe pedestrian passage.
KerbDrain
A one piece heavy duty modular trench drain made from polymer concrete comprising an integrally cast channel and batter with inlets for continuous drainage. The underlying channel then transfers captured flow to the stormwater system often eliminating the need for multiple pits. Both mountable and non-mountable batter profiles are available.
Monoblock
A one piece heavy duty modular trench drain made from polymer concrete for heavy duty areas in fast moving traffic. Its monolithic construction removes the risk of components vibrating loose allowing it to be suitable in applications where drainage is positioned within the flow of traffic.
Qmax
A heavy duty slot drainage system made from lightweight, medium duty polyethylene (MDPE). A water tight seal is provided by a push fit connection between each 2 metre long unit. A number of sizes is available to cater for the drainage of small urban streetscapes up to large expansive tarmacs.
Technical support for ACO Infrastructure
ACO’s Technical Services Department will provide assistance on all aspects of trench drainage. Services include:
• Trench hydraulic performance
• Grate hydraulic performance
• Run layout and scheduling services
• Ponding analysis
• Chemical resistance
• Loading advice to choose correct trench drain system
